Step-by-step solution
5 steps1.1.1 Determine the value(s) of and .
The general form of the function is .
The graph passes through point A and point B .
Substitute these points into the equation:
Substitute point A into the equation.
Substitute point B into the equation.
Add Equation 1 and Equation 2 to eliminate .
Substitute into Equation 2 to find .
The values are and .
1.1.2 Show that the equation of is .
Substitute the values of and found in 1.1.1 into the general equation .
This matches the given equation.
1.1.3 The range of .
The function is .
For a hyperbola of the form , the horizontal asymptote is . The range includes all real numbers except the value of the horizontal asymptote.
Since , the horizontal asymptote is .
The range of is all real numbers except .1.1.4 The domain of .
For the function , the denominator cannot be zero.
Therefore, .
The domain of is all real numbers except .1.1.5 The coordinates of C.
C is the x-intercept, which means .
Set the equation to 0.
Multiply both sides by .
The coordinates of C are .
